Missed Flush Still Good

LoriPersinger

Level 16 : 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

After a series of raises on a {2-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{9-Spades} flop in a headsup pot Manfred Jaschkowitz moved all in and was called by Anthony An.

Manfred Jaschkowitz: {a-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}
Anthony An: {k-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}

An was drawing to the king-high flush, which would be no good because Jaschkowitz was drawing to the nutflush. The board ran out {3-Spades}{3-Hearts} and Jaschkowitz scored a big double-up with A-high.

Hanson Henry began Day 2 with 154,500 and he's already nearly tripled that here in the early goings.

In a recent hand, Veselin Dimitrov raised to 13,000 from the under-the-gun position and Henry called from the cutoff. The rest of the players folded and it was heads-up action to the flop, which came down {10-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{q-Spades}.

Dimitrov continued for 15,000 and Henry immediately min-raised to 30,000.

That did the trick as Dimitrov released his hand.

Missy Bartelme came into Day 2 second in chips and she has continued to add to her stack.

In a multi-way pot Bartelme, first to act, checked her option from her big blind on a {3-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} flop. After a bet of 18,000 and a call Bartelme then put in a hefty check-raise to 85,000 that was more than enough to take down the pot.

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

From early position Leonard August opened the action to 15,000.

After it folded around to the big-blind player, who only had 28,000 behind, he tanked and recounted his stack several times before eventually sending his cards to the muck.

August then said, "I wasn't folding." and tabled {a-Spades}{k-Hearts}.

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

On a board of {j-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} in a headsup pot Corey Hochman, first to act, had a bet of 23,000 sitting in front of him.

His opponent in the hand tanked for almost a minute and even had the calling chips in his hand before he finally folded and looked over at Hochman, who was sitting directly to his right. Hochman then checked his cards once more before sending them to the muck.
